nVent Unveils Next-Generation Liquid Cooling Solutions for AI Data Centers November 28, 2025 As the artificial intelligence boom continues to drive unprecedented power densities in data centers, the race to develop efficient cooling solutions has intensified. Traditional air cooling is increasingly inadequate for the thermal demands of modern AI chipsets, making advanced liquid cooling a critical infrastructure component for the industry's future. nVent, a global leader in electrical connection and protection solutions, has announced a comprehensive update to its liquid cooling product portfolio, specifically engineered to support current and future AI workloads. The launch, which occurred in late November 2025, includes a new range of modular and scalable coolant distribution units (CDUs) designed for both row and rack-based deployments. The updated portfolio also features next-generation power distribution units (PDUs) and advanced technology cooling system (TCS) manifolds. According to the company, these solutions are the result of over a decade of innovation and close collaboration with chip manufacturers. Eric Osborn, General Manager of nVent Data Solutions, stated, "We are tapping into our deep technical expertise, and working collaboratively with chip manufacturers and the broader ecosystem, to solve our customers’ unique challenges with these new liquid cooling and power solutions." A key feature of the new offering is a common control platform aimed at enhancing system reliability and improving the operational experience for data center managers. The strategic expansion positions nVent to capitalize on the massive infrastructure buildout required for AI. By providing modular and scalable cooling infrastructure, the company addresses a core bottleneck in deploying high-performance computing clusters. This move also aligns with broader industry trends, including nVent's development of a CDU inspired by Google's open-source Project Deschutes design, highlighting the push towards standardized, high-efficiency cooling architectures.
